Pros

Pay and benefits are comparable or better than industry standard. Highly diverse employee base. Work is of high value to society and the country.

Cons

No training and incompetent functional management result in poor performance on contracts. Management is very biased and bases promotions and raises on how well they like an employee instead of skills or performance. Most contracts are of a classified nature, which adds additional hinderance to career growth. There is no job stability and engineers are treated with very little respect. They're considered "labor" and "expense items" instead of the professionals behind successful capture and execution of programs.

Pros

Very large aerospace company that is #3 in the business Many areas that one can work in, if engineering skills are broad enough Competitive salaries with similar companies Good benefits

Cons

Many of the programs are being relocated to their TX, MS plants due to cost Reorganizations occur often Sometimes Reduction in Force (RIF) occurs covertly, where Section Managers are not notified, even when their section members are impacted Sometimes RIF counts are low to avoid having to abide by the WARN law in CA Some managers can "blackball" employees to force them to quit and still stay within legal bounds
